Sougayilang Fishing Rods, Graphite Spinning Rods, Lightweight 2 Pieces Cork Handle Casting

Took it out for the first time and Two 1 1/2 pounders did not disappoint

Can’t beat the price and works well.

Just received the rod. I would say it’s an ok fishing rod: Solid builded but lack of sensitivity(otherwise it will cost you at least $100). So I would recommend ML instead of M tone if some small fishes(under 1lb) are also your target.

This is a really nice 2 piece casting rod. I put a 7.6 ounce Kastking Centron Lite Baitcasting Reel on this rod. It balances well and feels great. This rod feels very LIGHT but responsive and sturdy."Sougayilang Baitcasting Reels, 8:1 Gear Ratio Fishing Reel with Magnetic Braking System Casting Reel, 9 + 1 Ball Bearings Super Smooth Anti-Corrosion Baitcaster Reel" is the closest match to what I'm using and it seems to have better specs.I normally use 1 piece Med Heavy/Medium or Heavy/Stiff Rods. I got this for keeping behind the seat of the Truck for those "OH!! Lets test this Canal Out!!" while out and about. lolI haven't fished this rod yet, but having been Bass fishing for over 50 years now I can tell how a Rod and Real setup will perform pretty well before I hit the water with them. This Rod will do it's job and do it well.The action flexes enough to toss out some smaller/lighter lures and has enough backbone for good hook setting. The Joint goes about 3 inches up into the Top Part of the Rod. Nice firm secure joint once seated. Takes a bit of Twist Force to make the top turn out of line.I've never found a two piece rod that will ever match a one piece. This rod comes pretty close though. Another VERY nice feature of this rod is that the Rod Blank area exposed under the Reel seat is large enough for me to have my Middle finger AND Index finger comfortably touching it for added feel.I'm also liking the more uniform shape of the split cork grip vs the Hour Glass or Tapered curved ones on rods these days. The butt is long enough to easily brace under your forearm for leverage if needed. But not so long as to interfere with working the rod.For the money this a quality rod that will perform well. I'm certainly glad I got it.

I didn't inspect rod in the return period.The rod tip didn't ha ceramic insert in .I wonder if they'll make it right?

Busted in 2 places after catching a 28" pike.

You're getting a lot for you money here, the attention to detail of this rod is fantastic, there is not a single flaw in it's construction, not in the handle, the reel holder or any of the acrylic work on any of the eyelets. The eyelets are also straight as an arrow and ceramic. I mean come on a strong graphite rod with this level of detail is... well it's recommended that's what it is, In all honesty if I could do it over I would opt for the light med action the med. is stiffer than other brands so I would order an action lighter than you normally would.

Not a fisherman myself, but have been wanting to get into it for a while. First impressions from a novice: pole is very light yet durable, while maintaining good responsiveness. To get a feel for this I had some help from my cat and his mouse toy, I tied on some line and attached a mouse toy to the end. First I’ll cast it out into the living room where he goes zooming after it, then to really test the responsiveness I’d twitch it side to side as he constantly bats it out of the air or chases it around. To test the sturdiness I’d wait for him to tire out and lay on top of the mouse, where I would begin pulling straight up with the rod trying to get it out from underneath him. His 13.3 lb frame would bend the rod considerably without it falling apart or breaking. I cant wait for the weather to warm up so I can get a reel on here to try and catch real catfish.
